Nothing I can say and nothing I can do
Can change the fate coming for me and you
Nothing I can see and nothing I can find
Tells me this world has got us all in mind
Little did I know, black thunder rolling in
Little did I know, that this could be the end
Little did I know, time to begin again
Little did I know, little did I know
Nothing we can say and nothing we can do
Our gold and silver it won't pull us through
Nothing we can shout and nothing we can sing
Can stop the bell this world it wants to ring
Little did I know, the knife and rusty blade
Little did I know, what fragile souls we made
Little did I know, an execution stayed
Little did I know
The center slowly breaks
The thread disintegrates
The stars they slowly fall
God can you hear us at all
Nothing we design and nothing we could build
Can stop all nature once it's had its fill
Walked on every field and torn apart the land
The blood of every being is on our hands
Little did I know, the night could get so long
Little did I know, we'd lose our right and wrong
Little did I know, war drums are beating strong
Little did I know, nothing we can say
Little did I know, nothing we can do
Little did I know, nothing we can say
Little did I know, nothing we can do
Little did I know, nothing we can say
Can change the fate that's coming
